What is that in the distance? Could it really be? Yep it is: BALTO!!! This is mainly for the benefit of my Disney loving friends. I love Balto too. I remember seeing him when I was little in New York. My mom got this photo the other day, but I need to get back to New York personally. This will have to do for now.
This was in Pikes Place Market in Seattle during Halloween. Surprisingly the costumes where not as outrageous as I thought they would be. I was prepared to see some crazy things but it wasn’t absurd. Actually it was pretty normal. Well this guy just cracked me up. Standing on a corner smoking in a skeleton outfit. There is just something funny about that.
Little kid running at University of Washington. I have the same sweatshirt. yeah.
This woman at University of Washington caught my eye mainly because of her face, hair and glasses. I really like her attire as well. It just felt like she belonged there and she knew it. She seemed to fit in right where she belonged.
I have been telling my friends all day so now I am going to tell you: I hate mosquitoes with a fiery passion that is unparalleled. I have a little creek in my backyard so lucky me, every time it rains my family gets a wonderous gift of a thousand biting monsters in our home which used to be so safe and secure. It is like a battlefield in my house. Whenever mosquitoes are spotted, the war is on, no holding back now. There are rolled magazines and books handy for quick squashing access because we don’t tolerate these nasty buggers. Seriously I always find them in the bathroom and I spot it and suddenly the house is alive, ...
This photo I took in Salt Lake City is basically famous in my family. Well at least to my mom and me. I don’t really know why, but it is basically the photo that represents our road trips. We love it, so here it is.
Love truly is blind, this woman in Pikes Place Market was singing on a corner and was truly blind. There was something really sad about this, yet she seemed so happy. Maybe she just loved blindly enough that she didn’t need to see, she could just believe. Some times it is better to live that way. It is easier to believe blindly than have to stare the truth in the face everyday. I wonder which kind of person she is, a believer or a seeker. ...
I wish I could go on a Ferris wheel right now. Go on a slow ride up to the clouds take a handful and bring it back down to earth with me. Here is my cloud, want some? It tastes like cotton candy. Anyway.. sorry about that, this is a Ferris wheel somewhere off in South Dakota in an abandoned sideshow amusement park. I wish I had stopped to take a ride. I feel like on road trips you need to stop every time you have an inkling to do so because you never know if you will ever see anything like it again. I regret not stopping at some things and I will remember some for the rest of my life for the things I did stop at. ...
I took this photo in Seattle of this little girl and it reminded me of a poem I wrote once, here it is. There is a little girl Sitting on the sidewalk She cries with little Hiccups of breath As silver drops Run rivers down her face Her hair bobs with her bouncing breaths She squeezes her eyes hut Creasing a face So soft and young Making cardboard out of dough Holding her knee in her hands ...
Are you afraid Of the dark Or just what Lies inside of it When you see darkness Do you see the shadows Or the light That hides within When you look Into a mirror Do you see yourself Or a reflection Staring back As life slips From your heart Do you think back Or wonder ahead As the sun sets Do you see The beautiful colors Or the impending Darkness that it brings Do you see The glass as Half full Or half empty Tell me which Side of the coin Do you prefer Choose your side wisely It decides your fate
